Bare by Wren Steiner
On Thursday, 13 July Wren Steiner’s latest exhibition, Bare, opens at The Fox Darkroom & Gallery in Kensington. It offers an intimate and provocative photographic exploration into human vulnerability. Consisting of a series of portraits and text, the collection provides a window into many faces of human vulnerability while evoking questions about the stories and experiences which define them. Like much of Wren’s work, Bare challenges the viewer to go beyond the surface and connect with the deeper layers in themselves and each other.
Wren hopes that the work will engage viewers and re-define their association with this aspect of themselves and others, to not only see it as a universal human experience, but something which can be a beautiful thing – and that sharing it can be a fortifying experience which can help us connect with others and transcend the fear we so often associate with it.
